i was wondering about this, maybe after the 'circus', alex neil has asked for a much more low key approach much in the way of 'i just want to get on with my job and not make a fuss'...which was how it used to be done, get appointed, maybe a quick mention on the 6:00 news, get stuck in.
The only damage that has been done is the last 2 games without a manager has cost us points. Need to out a good winning run together now and hope Wigan poor form continues
Speakmann wants to be front and centre but he has a 2 hour session booked to look in the mirror and assert his smugness levels
The whole thing is mental imo. I'm not expecting scarf pics and all that sort of stuff at this late stage before a game, but if it's all done then they need to tell the fans; people will be heading down today and they don't even know who the gaffer is or who his backroom staff are. It's shocking pr from the club. Just announce it and say something like 'more to come out on Sunday after we focus on the match'.
Itts becoz Methven iis teh PR gruru issn't it, two buzy tyyping shiite too the fick as fook Soonderland sooporters. The horrible cnut.
Don't know why he keeps denying that it's him with that Kildare account over the road. It's blatantly obvious, and quite frankly embarrassing.
I want them to announce it 1 minute after Look North has finished, so they can't have any part in it.
I'm not sure it is....(Methven, I mean) Can't remember who it was, may have been Grumpy Old Man, said they were in Methven company at the same time Kildare was posting on rtg. Sure it was at a RAWA meeting or something. Though, maybe he got someone else to post on his behalf to give the impression its not him.
I reckon Methven just demonstrated excellent control of his sock puppet accounts during the time you mention. Who'd have ever thought it, the great tory PR guru posting more than a Russian troll.
And deliberately mis-spell words to further convince uneducated "Northerners" it isn't him. Because surely someone as supremely "educated" as Old Salmon Pants would write with perfect spelling wouldn't they? Of course it's him man.
From what I saw of Methven on STID and the way that poster words certain things I reckon it's him, he says the same type of phrases. If you read some of them with his voice in your mind it's definitely him.
It’s not him. It’s possible he has links to the old regime - Short - Kildare partners in some way. He’s definitely in finance /wealth management
Nope. Runs a little deeper and it takes longer to build back trust from a fan base that is pissed off.
The more I think about it the more I believe that Keane would have been the most risky appointment, like a few others I was being swept away with the emotion and nostalgia element. We now seem to be getting a manager who has a lot of the "Keane type" attributes, as in he will demand a lot from the players, but he has also a lot more experience. Fingers crossed it is announced soon and he can get us back on track.
I think LJ was a bit unlucky mind with some of the decisions, especially the one in the Lincoln game.
